Khadi or khaddar simply means cotton, usually handspun. Khadi is Indian handspun and hand-woven cloth. The raw materials may be cotton, silk, or wool, which are spun into threads on a spinning wheel called a charkha. Khadi is a fabric that breathes “warm in winter and cool in summer” It is a hand spun and hand woven cloth which acquired patriotic status during India freedom struggle and it gave a “Swadeshi Spirit”.
